Clothreyes is a 3D Studio Max R3 plug-in. The current verion is offered free from www.Reyes-infographica.com This plug-in allows you to add real world physics and cloth dynamics to a mesh. - Kendo that sounds similar to something I was playing with, Transmapping some hexmesh strips parented to a dummy head then using the Clothreyes modifier on them. It's just one of those things that needs patience to get the right look for. Maybe it works better on certain hairstyles. I got the idea from seeing recent videogame cutscenes where the hair seems to use cloth dynamics and is transparency mapped. (Check out Final Fantasy 9) I also tried using the Poser treemaker in conjuntion with Furfur to do hairy transmapped objects, then importing to max and adding the Clothreyes modifier. I got rather poor results but it can be done.
